Attachment: OOZIE-2371-001.patch
Hi!
I've added some documentation for workflow action state transitions.
However, there are some things that I'm not sure about, any help would be
appreciated.
I'm not sure what the state USER_RETRY means. It would be logical if the action
entered this state when a user manually retries the action, for example after
START_MANUAL, but from the code it seems that this state is entered
automatically in the ActionXCommand#handleUserRetry method, which is called
from ActionXCommand#handleError, for example when running the test
TestWorkflowActionRetryInfoXCommand#testRetryConsoleUrl.
Another thing is what final states are accessible from END_RETRY and
END_MANUAL. In the test TestActionErrors#testEndNonTransient, the action
transitions from END_MANUAL to OK at the end, but this is a 'test' action and
the ActionExecutor is a ForTestingActionExecutor, which is not a "real",
used-in-production ActionExecutor. The executor calls setEndData on the context
which calls setEndData on the WorkflowActionBean instance that sets the status.
I decided to include the transition in the documentation because other
ActionExecutors' end methods do mainly the same thing (for example
JavaActionExecutor), that is, set the action status according to the
externalStatus string.
For the END_RETRY state, I wasn't able to find an instance of transition to a
final state.
Thanks a lot,
Daniel
